If you would like more information about it or other aspects of the project, please contact me. Joanne G. Schwartzberg,MD American Medical Association 515 N. State St Chicago, IL 60610 phone: 312-464-5355 fax: 312046405841 e-mail: Joanne_Schwartzberg@ama-assn.org >>> <Anne_Pemberton@harvardpilgrim.org> 09/12 12:06 PM >>> Thank you to everyone who has already given me advice on teaching health literacy to physicians. As part of the project I am developing, I want to do a preliminary needs assessment both with the medical residents and their patients. While I know about tools to measure health literacy, I am not familiar with any tools to measure physicians' perceptions about the health literacy of specific patients. Does anyone have any experience with/knowledge about this aspect of it? Thank you so much - Anne Pemberton
